God of War Ragnarök is an action-adventure video game developed by Santa Monica Studio and the sequel to 2018's God of War. Based on Norse mythology, the game will be set in ancient Scandinavia and feature series protagonist Kratos and his teenage son Atreus. - Hry
You ever wonder if kratos just lets out a nasty fart, and Mimir is just like
"God's brother, I felt that one!"?
This comment has me fuckin rolling omg 🤣🤣
😂😂
💀
He does something like that in Svarthalheim at the beginning of the game when an earthquake happens and Mimir blames it on Kratos.
Lmaoo jack definitely laughed hard when he read this
You can tell how much Kratos was mentally setback after killing Heimdall because he fumbled trying to get the horn from his corpse. I love the little details they put into the game
He didn’t wanna kill anymore but he snapped because Heimdall threatened Atreus. After he “woke up” he realized what he did and started to fumble over it. I can’t help but feel bad because he broke his promise to himself but also feel good because he killed Heimdall
He didn’t fumble he unhooked it
@@merej_yt jokes on you i wanna die
i shouldn’t have scrolled through the comments before watching the episode huh
@@bea-le2rw nope
the heimdall fight perfectly showed how weak heimdall truly was, he relied on his foresight so much that it became a crutch, once something he couldn’t predict hit him all of his confidence and rationale crumbled
hes still unexpectedly strong, if he were trained like any other warrior he couldve probably been a serious threat with his bifrost mastery and gift of foresight
He's still incredibly strong. Its just his ego made him too pissed to concentrate properly.
@@-Nihilus- yep
But he wasn't weak at all
@@ismaelalvarez8661 I think context plays a part here. When Kratos and company finally learned how to counter his party trick (foresight) it came down to who was tougher, which was clearly Kratos. In this regard, he was weak because he’s come to rely on foresight over sheer battle prowess.
Heimdall: "You dont get to decide my fate!"
Kratos: "I'm deciding my own. Go and decide yours."
Heimdall: *attacks*
Kratos: "You've made your choice. And you chose death."
Badass.
Heimdall doesn’t get to decide Atreus fate either
Heimdall:threatens the son of the man who destroyed an entire pantheon
Kratos:reacts violently
Heimdall: shocked pikachu face
In fairness to him he DID think he was immortal and can do whatever he wanted to until he got his head bashed into the concrete
He wasn’t shocked that Kratos reacted violently. He was shocked that he actually hit him.
@@KhotaMaz Still, I’d be a little careful with my words when the god killer himself is on my doorstep. I mean Odin did in fact know his past.
Heimdall is up there with the guys who killed John Wick’s dog in terms of poking the wrong bear
Am I upset about the consequences of him being dead? Yes. Am I upset that he’s dead?
Oh hell no. The little shit very much deserved to have his ass handed to him.
Maybe I'm a psychopath, but seeing Kratos smash Heimdal's head into the ground after every annoying thing he said and did throughout the game was so satisfying
Nah. It's what all bullies deserve.
Heimdall is one of those characters who does his best to make you hate him so that you can feel satisfaction when he gets what he deserves. As a rule, I really hate bullies, so this kind of thing is quite enjoyable.
nah u aren't, his personality is exactly why u felt satisfied seeing him get smahed like that, he is made to be hated
@@VD1461 even Kratos mentioned that he felt satisfied
It's like seeing Mika being shot in his face in rdr2
Heimdall: "I'M THE WATCH GUARD OF AESIR! THE HERALD OF RAGNARÖK!"
Sean: "AND I AM THE FUCKING GOD OF WAR"

Fucking badass one liner.
That was a cold as line
14:30
I love that just like Atreus learnt a new word and just kept on saying it, Kratos learnt the comfort and conection a hand to the shoulder could give and now just can't stop doing it, like father like son
Rigjt
it's a shame the word was mispronounced but whatever, corners have to be cut here and there
To explain the Heimdall fight: the idea is that as you use the spear to catch him off guard, you slowly begin to overwhelm his senses and overcome his precognition (notice how when Kratos gets in close with his fists, he can't hit Heimdall at all, then forces him to block instead of dodge, and finally hits him on the cheek). Once you've hit him for the first time and can start hitting him normally, its to show that Kratos has essentially gotten fast enough and unpredictable enough that Heimdall's precognition is no longer an advantage.
I think it was a combination of what you said and also Heimdall was getting frustrated and therefore fighting worse.
This and Heimdall getting too arrogant also helps out in his demise
@@BuckingBadger Yeah, the fact that he still didn't even use the blade of his sword against Kratos after getting hit is insane. Shows just how delusional he was.
@@zamboozled322 Exactly, its most apparent in the last phase with the glowing arm. He becomes more aggressive and uses Bifrost attacks more, but he's also really predictable (how ironic).
Thus, being the Destroyer of Fate 😋
I love that little detail that Mimir isn’t on Kratos when he murders Heimdall. Instead, hes on the ground watching in horror
yes! out of the whole fight that was the part that hit the heaviest for me
I felt bad for Mimir 😅
It makes you realize that Mimir doesn't really witness all of Kratos' violence first hand like that. So to see it so plainly in front of him is maybe more shocking. Nice detail
@@UlyssesSGrant12 He has heard of what the Ghost of Sparta is capable of but hearing of it and seeing it firsthand are two different things. Kratos has clearly done his best to try and suppress that part of himself, but unfortunately it seems that this side of himself is difficult to get rid of completely.
Ye and when Atreus ask Mimir how Kratos be ike when he is super pissed off Mimir be like," trust me lad you wouldn't want to see your father get pissed off."
I just love how jack at 14:38 went from "i'm the f***ing god of war!" to immediately yelling at heimdall calling him a baby man

Anxiety squirrel telling the God of War to "get bent" is a special kind of amusing.
it's CZcamsr humour, but the humour in GoW 3 was excessively dark and cynical at times, so lightening it up makes sense
@@holliswilliams8426 Well Sungwon (the voice of Ratatoskr and the squirrels) is a youtuber (aswell as voice actor) so that line made me wonder if it was improv or scripted.
Jack, the frozen lightning bolt you see is why Thor said, "This feels familiar" when you two fought in the beginning. That means Kratos' wife, Faye, also fought Thor before and survived since she's the only one that held the Axe before.
I wonder what the story behind that was. It must have been a fierce confrontation.
@@emperorofinception3571 If I remember correctly Faye was part of the resistance Durlin spoke of. I believe she fought Thor to a stalemate.
@@The_Holier_Spirit Impressive, so the collision of the axe and the hammer caused the same reaction that Kratos and Thor caused. I knew that Faye was apparently a thorn in the side of Odin and the Aesir for multiple reasons, but to battle Thor to a stalemate is no small feat.
@@emperorofinception3571 why u speaking like mimir💀
I always thought it was a reference to mcu Thor when he fights loki at the bifrost
Seeing the hatred on Kratos's face for the split second as he flipped Heimdall over to strangle him to death was intense.
And it's even worse because it's explained that Heimdall doesn't quite read your mind, like what you're thinking, he reads your intentions. So when he was forced to stare a murderous Kratos in the eyes as he died, he could feel just how far and deep Kratos's wrath goes towards him and all of Asgard for continuously threatening his son goes.
Back when Thor threatened Heimdall he called him a "Sick man". But when he saw the old God of War peering out from behind its cage of control all he could muster out in horror was "monster".
That is a nice detail
My interpretation is that "Monster" was, at least somewhat, a parting shot.
Throughout the Norse series, the best way to hurt Kratos emotionally is to call him a monster, to suggest that the only thing he's good for is brutally murdering people. Heimdall would've spotted _that_ a mile away. And as Heimdall was dying, and could do nothing more to Kratos physically, calling him "monster" was the last attack Heimdall had left.
@@mithiwithi yeah, that's my interpretation. less horror, more 'unrepentant asshole'. there's a lot of people who would be assholes when they're on top, but start begging for mercy if the tables turn. But Heimdall, at least, managed to die the way he lived: pissing off everyone.
you should write books bro
I just think it's funny how random mini-bosses are stronger than Heimdall
Hell, basic wulvers give me more trouble.
read somewhere on the first game that it's mostly because the core bosses are weaker because they are needed for the story. a lot of the mini-bosses and side quests is just to unlock a lot more stuff and the progression is designed to be able to unlock enough for enjoyable gameplay if sides aren't your thing. (the second sentence is just what I think)
@@LordValph Given how much the games explains how to solve the story puzzles and leave them up to you on the side quest I can believe that.
Heimdall hasn't been hit for centuries, so he probably forgot even what pain is.
Main story bosses in games tend to be easier than optional side bosses since developers want everyone to be able to finish a game and see the end of the story whereas optional fights are for people who want more challenge. If they weren't optional and they were insanely hard, it would put a lot of people off the game. Not all games work this way, like Dark Souls, but that's an outlier in the way developers design games, not the norm

Heimdall's fight was the definition of everyone has a plan until they get punched in the face.
He had very little defense because he never expected to get hit ever lol

@@astornerion9933 strength(Kratos) vs dex(heimdal)
That brings to mind a quote I once heard "It doesn't matter how good you are at planning, what matters is how good you are when the plan fails". Clearly Heimdall never expected someone to be able to hurt him, so he never bothered to plan what to do in that situation.
Kratos decimating Heimdall was unbelievably satisfying
It's always satisfying watching a smug, overconfident, arrogant, bullying motherfucker get their teeth punched in by someone they insulted and underestimated.
Same; he wanted the smoke & got it
Facts
Old kratos came out there. Usually now he just does what is necessary for the kill, not usually brutal anymore. But those head slams just god daym
I kinda wanted him to stab his chest and blow up his whole body
I like how...quiet hiemdalls final moments are. Theres no big neck snap, no tearing in half. Just a slow quiet release. Can almost hear fate laughing
he still crushed his windpipe though, you can't choke someone that fast so he must have caved his windpipe in
I know Sean wanted a intense gruesome moment but I found the simple death of crushing his windpipe and choking him out while Mimir watch so much more hard hitting message wise
30:58 i LOVE this, Atreus grunting back to his father is so simple but its a moment of understanding and respect between them
like father like son
I didn't even notice that! oh my god that's perfect!
I have to say, the dad jokes & the ravenous bloodthirsty calls for extraordinary violence have made this a very well-balanced series.

I actually think the simple choking death of Heimdall added to the horror of the moment. It wasn't meant to be epic, it was meant to be horrifying and ultimately human, which is the part of Kratos he's been trying to get back. It makes you think about the choices Kratos makes and what that means for him as a person.
Slicing your opponents apart, especially with the long range stuff, has an almost impersonal feel to it. It is just a fight with people on opposite sides.
Kratos, in a rage to protect his son, wrapping his hands around Heimdall's neck and watching the eyes burn out was personal. He watched the life leave 'ol hammy's eyes, only coming to back to himself afterwards and realizing he broke his promise.
@@infernez In a way it reminds me of when he killed his father Zeus, he didn't use the blades that he kept with him all that time, he just decided to beat his father to dead with his bare hands so that he could have the satisfaction of feeling the life ebbing out of him. The Ghost of Sparta is still in there and while I know that there are some who see that as a good thing, I personally see it as rather sad. Kratos has tried so hard to keep that part of himself under control, to leave it behind but it seems that this is one part of himself determined to cling to him. I can't imagine he was feeling very good about how this ended even if it was necessary that Heimdall should die.
He didn't choke him as you can't choke someone that fast, he crushed his windpipe and basically separated his head from his body.
23:55 even when being chased by an entire army Atreus makes the time to meet new people
Gives Spiderman vibes
“Hey, im atreus are you ok?”
“Hi! No!”
I loved that part, such a sweet BOI
Wow you actually saw mimir staring at Heimdall's face. You could tell that he was thinking the same as what players were thinking they're not sure if they should be happy for this death or absolutely terrified. And the line that he delivers is the perfect line!
"I hope I'm never described as girthy" well now hold on just a second! "Well only in the right place" there it is lmfao
Freyr : "sun yourself on its bow--you look like you could use it"
Kratos : "Haha~ thats the ashes of my dead wife and daughter"
The moment he said it i was surprised he didn't get killed right then and there
Yeah fucking brutal. I thought about that and cringed a little 😬
reminds me of cable and deadpool
"what's with the dirty bear"
"that's not dirt it's the blood of my dead daughter"
I love the Blues Clues reference while Kratos and Atreus went searching for the boar.

I love how bored Kratos sounds when he says, "I did not say that" to the Anxious Squirrel. He's so done lmao
I LOVE the little detail of Birgir's chant when he jumps off the boat. It's the last verse of a song called Helvegen, meant to guide the dying to the afterlife. Literally so cool.
It's actually from an old norse poem collection called Hávamál or "Words of the High One". Wardruna just used it in the end of their song Helvegen, it's in old norse while the rest of the song is in norwegian like most other Wardruna songs.
Ironically, Hávamál is a collection of philosophy and life guides attributed to Odin, the grand nemesis of the game.
@@nax2337 that's really cool, I didn't know that!!
I knew I recognised it from that song!! I love it to pieces ❤❤❤
thank you so much for pointing this out!!! I love the song and I didn't realize it!!
Yeah...like..."literally "...
I like how, during the fight, Kratos slowly sped up to Heimdall’s pace/speed, you can see his punches speeding up in each stun cutscene, and then he’s now on par with Heimdall to actually land multiple hits, it’s a very neat detail showing how Kratos is as a Greek tactician and fighter, he got into Heimdall’s head and he won, funny thing is Heimdall was still high and mighty even after his arm got blew off lol
and he also made Heimdall block instead of dodge, after the first hit landed, he started becoming more aggressive, letting kratos hit him even more
I mean, he killed Hermes. He was probably just tapping back into that god killer flow and getting back up to speed. Literally.
'tis but a scratch

@@MusicManiac-nt6hz no it isn't

I couldn't help but feel a little sorry for Heimdall when he started babbeling during the fight. He was so utterly astounded by the fact that someone actually managed to hit him. I think it broke him. Imagine how incredibly exhausting it must be to always try to keep one step ahead of everyone and everything.
He let pride get the best of him
out of all the people to feel sorry for.
@@mellchiril I know right wtf lol
I enjoyed in his pain and death, even though I actually liked him and thought he was a funny little asshole
@@mellchiril
Well there’s actually plenty of reason to feel sorry for him, just like Thor and Baldur. They spent their entire lives being groomed, gaslit, abûsed, and just generally manipulated by a father that cared no more for them than what they could offer him through their abilities. He didn’t mourn for Heimdall, he mourned the loss of his foresight and the Gjallarhorn, even though Heimdall was overall perfectly loyal to him and his own son.
It’s heartbreaking when you realize the lengths of abuse and mind bending he must have gone through for so many years that turned him into the devoted, mindless slave Odin needed him to be. His arrogance likely spawned from a mental defensivenesses, the need to remind himself that he was special and needed. That he MUST be better than others, that his father must surely love and respect HIM because he always does what is asked of him and has powers that are beyond that of most others. He also probably associated being used by Odin with high honor and status because he was raised to be loyal to him unconditionally.
All of Odin’s children are horribly tragic and I wish all of them got to be mourned and appreciated for who they are. Unfortunately, not only did the developers make Heimdall into a supreme annoyance, but they also didn’t explore his mental state and toxic relationship like they did for Thor. Even Baldur gets some level of empathy and pity through our questing with Freya. Sad that poor Heimdall didn’t get to be portrayed as the Martyr he truly was.
I love the touch of Kratos TESTING the limits of Heimdall's precognition-- wild swings, controlled swings, then boxer's swings and **grabbing him** and cracking his face.
it was really smart from Kratos, kept doing the same move, was steps ahead of that "precognition" when he threw that curve ball. Thats like some For Honor shit man..

What I'm about to say is speculation on my part, so don't take it at my word and say it's the truth, but what Kratos did was OVERWHELM Heimdall's precognition at the end. Remember, Kratos has the physical prowess of the penultimate God of War (hee hoo title drop), and the reaction times to suit. Heimdall might be able to see everything that's thrown at him, but he can't react as fast as someone like Kratos can. Like our friend Benny from the Tops Casino once said... The game was rigged from the start.

1:31:59 the ghost saying Thor’s mead cup never seemed to empty reminded me of the myth of Utgard Loki and how he put Thor and Loki through various tests with illusions, and Thor got humiliated in his tests. First he couldn’t outdrink Utgard Loki, then he tried to lift a cat off the ground but it only stretched and stretched and he could only get one paw off the ground, then he got beat in a wrestling match with a frail old lady. But then Utgard Loki revealed Thor was drinking a cup connected to the world’s oceans and he significantly reduced the water level of the whole planet, the cat was Jormangandr the World Serpent, and even lifting one cats paw off the ground could’ve destroyed the earth, and finally the old lady was the personification of death and the fact that Thor could even put up a bit of a fight was really freaky to Utgard Loki.
I think she was the personification of age, but point taken. Forgive the necroposting lol

idk how i realized this, but when Kratos killed Heimdall, that was the first time Mimir had seen the actual Ghost of Sparta. he wanted to kill Heimdall, just like he wanted to kill Zeus, where as the last game, he didn’t want to kill Baldur but felt he had to in order to protect Freya
Yes, the similarity between the two battles mentioned is quite noticeable. Mimir has heard of the Ghost of Sparta by reputation but as he found out the real thing is much more terrifying to witness than it is to hear about.
@ConnorCHudson whoaaaaa i didn’t even think about - that’s crazyy
and it wasnt even raged out ghost of sparta either, this was a much calmer version.
@@justarandompepe8961 yup. tame compared to Kratos' other kills... remember Hermes? Ha, Poseidon?
To explain why you were able to hit Himdal during the fight. The first time you stun him, your punches are slow and sloppy, but Kratos was testing his speed. The 2nd time is the same thing, but the final punch made Himdal BLOCK, so he knew he can’t dodge them all, even if he knows they are coming. And so after the 3rd time, he was so fast he was able to hit Himdal for the remaining time during the fight.
So to summarize, Kratos was smart enough to go faster and faster over time. Even if Himdal knows what Kratos will do, he won’t be fast enough to dodge the attacks.
I don’t agree with this, for a few reasons. It’s a good theory but that would defeat the whole purpose of the spear in the first place. Even Mimir who has seen Kratos fight multiple enemies, was not confident he could lay a finger on Heimdall. The Spear is needed in the battle, Hiemdall did not believe the spear would explode so when it did it disorientated him. Kratos was able to hit him with his fist because I believe Hiemdall was still so confused by the notion and did not have time to recover, but I don’t think it’s a result of “Kratos punching faster than last time.” Personally I’m not really a fan of how the fight played out, with the potential it had it could’ve been really interesting fighting someone who could read your mind and movements but towards the end it just became a regular slasher fight and Hiemdall became more vulnerable like any other enemy.
@@bruv.2214 I do not agree with your disagreement. I think its a mix of both. You have to remember Kratos is 1.TRYING VERY effin hard not to kill Heimdal and 2. On a general DO NOT UNLEASH your true strength, evident by his fight with Thor right in the beginning.
He DID test his precognition with different speeds and punches (wild, controlled, very precise and then finally grabbing him ) and slowly got faster, the faster he got the more Heimdal couldn't react, however that wouldn't have been possible were it not for the spear to break his initial guard of arrogance and pride. He couldn't fathom that happened, as was the goal, he was "overwhelmed", Kratos becoming faster and closer to his true godly power being a big part of that.
When Atreus tried to shoot Heimdall behind his back, there's a bit of spray of blood at his face that came from his hand, implying that if you catch him off guard and you're fast enough, you can land a hit on him. He realized that Atreus almost got him and he had an angry look at his face (if the arrow didn't affect him at all he would've just been smug about it) and was about to retaliate but then Thor arrived just in time, neat detail.
Kratos was fast enough to beat Hermes, so there you go.
@@its_dey_mate the punches are thrown in different styles but watch again, the second and third are about the same the only difference is this time Kratos GRABBED him when Hiemdall went for the block if he was going faster couldn’t he just punch him and not resort to a grab? And if you don’t agree with my disappointment that’s fine I never said you had to.
@@bruv.2214 Kratos was getting faster, he also very smartly and carefully learned from the attacks of Heimdal, the same way the arrogant god does himself. The first time he could do nothing, the second, his punches more controlled and faster, Heimdal had to block, he couldn't dodge, the third time, even faster, Kratos anticipated the guard and he grabbed him, and punched him.
He couldn't "just punch him" because Heimdal was still a very strong adversary, and Kratos found the easiest way to strike surely, he knew Heimdal would block, for him he got predictable, and he knew that with this set of punches he would surely land a hit.
All was done for the beauty of simmetry and irony. If you don't like it then I guess thats fine, I "never said you have to", but that doesn't stop me from challenging your, in my opinion, flawed criticisms of an otherwise great boss battle.
Freyr: "Sun yourself on its bow it looks like you could use it."
Me: Yikes he's gonna die for that isn't he?
Kratos knows Freyr doesn't have a malicious or cruel bone in his body. And he's grown enough that he could hold the reflexive anger down long enough to remember that.
is freyr telling kratos to tan?
@@yuuji_1K Seems so. And Freyr does _not_ know the actual reason for Kratos' ash-pale skin, or he wouldn't have made a joke about it no matter how loopy he was.

I loved how the fight with heimdall panned out, in short heimdall was a glass cannon, his health bar hit rock bottom pretty quickly for a boss, and he was so pretentious that when he ACTUALLY got hit he had a mental breakdown😂
Like an entitled prick getting slapped by reality.
Yeah, dude relies on his "precognition" or "analytic calculation" of his enemy move that he never seemed to train his body. Unlike Thor whos taken many of Kratos hit.
I was thinking it'd be something like, he takes 1 hit, and ends up crying like Cartman from Southpark.
Talks tough shit, but can't take a single hit.
Would have been funny to have the whole fight seeing the full health bar, then you hit him once and it drops to 1hp immediately
@@TheOverlordEND That seems to be the primary reason both for his record of having never lost and for his pride. If he was wise, then he would have trained so that he could continue fighting in spite of damage and being hit in order to win a battle of attrition if his precognition fails. It wouldn't have helped him win here, but it would have made him much stronger. I recall one work of fiction where a character has a similar ability and when he ends up getting hit, it just proves to him that he was correct in labeling his opponent as a threat and he begins to try different tactics still relying on his precognition to keep his enemy off-balance in order to ensure victory. He even noted that he could understand why his enemy's previous opponent (this character's younger brother incidentally) ended up losing. Heimdall seems to lack that kind of discipline.

Yah, Heimdall is too conceit.

Birger is a Scandinavian name from Old Norse, bjarga, meaning "to help, to save, to protect". It is widely used in Norway as Birger but also as Børge. The Swedish variant of Birger would soon evolve into Börje. The Icelandic form is Birgir. He lived up to his name.
I like how Kratos got semi comfortable with human contact that he is just unnecessarily touching people’s shoulders now.
I know right!! Character development!
he touches people in the shoulders in GoW Ascencion
Freyr high af is one of my favorite random moments in this game
Damn, Sean had a true Gamer moment beating Heimdall in one go.
I was surprised Heimdall never did the thing where he tosses a rock and instantly time slows before following up with an attack. Happened to me tons and that mix up cost me a couple tries (Playing on hard is, hard)
Yeah, but he is going to have a terrible terrible TERRIBLE time fighting Gna. My brother played on Give me Balance. I played on Give Me God of War. When I got to Gna, I had a HORRIBLE fucking time. I started counting because it was almost a joke. I died to her over 124 times. I didn't want to back off of GMGW because once you leave that difficulty you can never go back in that playthrough. My brother (who's younger) asked me for help on Gna on his Give me Balance. And she still was tearing me up for a second when it came to damage dealt. Her attacks have NO telegraph except for maybe one or two but her combos and chains are brutal. If she catches you at the beginning of a combo. Even at full health, you're almost, if not dead.
@@anakinskywalker8610do you have to fight gna
@@anakinskywalker8610 No telegraph? All of them do that I know of. The only two attacks I ever couldn't see telegraphed was, spoiler territory after this
1. Her quick blade throw. She gives like half a second between pulsing red and throwing them. I had to get lucky and already be dodging or I might not be fast enough to evade them
2. Her dash in wing stab. There's a point where when she dashed in she either will do a stab or slash and I can't tell which is which. So I just, lock on, walk right, and block. I would always dodge her stab with the walking, and block the slash with the shield.
Every single other attack is telegraphed easily. Is there any in particular you are thinking of that aren't? Admittedly, I did not play the highest difficulty, second highest, but even without a revival stone it didn't take too many deaths until I had her attacks and timings down...ish
holy shit. was i the only who noticed that Mimir stopped alerting Kratos of enemies behind him after that fight with Heimdall? Damm... That sure is shows HOW that whole ordeal impacted the guy, especially because Kratos didn't EVEN replied properly afterwards either! He just grunted. I'm scared, it was such a bittersweet moment. I really hoped he didn't out right killed Heimdall, but it is what it is.
That was the first time Mimir really saw Kratos being the Ghost of Sparta again and he was forced to watch. He knew Heimdall and might've seen him grow up, so that would be traumatising no matter how much of a dick Heimdall was. Kratos choose to make it a slow death.
Heimdall was such a cool character (my 2nd fav character in both Norse games, first is obviously kratos) I loved how much of a dick he is, I was so happy with every line from him and still so happy when kratos was killing him

@@harleystar yes the point is the even is bittersweet isn't it
Like how Kratos first was using wide swings on Heimdall to test his reaction timing. Then got faster and more accurate with his swings to eventually hit faster than Heimdall could dodge. I think he even grabbed the same arm Heimdall initially used to block with
Great observation!
he did, he grabbed Heimdalls blocking arm and pulled him
Amazing observation, I enjoy the fight even more now, thanks
Indeed! You could tell that Kratos was studying Heimdall. He was fighting smart, not just aggressively.
he was studying the pattern that heimdall was using (dodge, dodge, dodge, block) and grabbed his arm when he went to block. big brain kratos

Cut forward a minute or 2 Kratos is turning his face into pulp by smashing it off the ground repeatedly 😂😂
Kratos: So you have chosen death
@@cgt3704 Pretty much yeah 😂
Heimdall speaks- Dark souls you died screen pops up 😂
When you look at Kratos' face at 16:16, it's very much like young Kratos' face. Between the tilted, furious eyebrows and flared nostrils, Heimdall was able to push Kratos back to his old rage. Loved this fight, honestly
I was hoping it was gonna go into heimdalls perspective just like the old games used to do, so it would show what kratos is becoming again
@@kingtheselands5498 Considering how similar Heimdall is to Hermes in terms of speed and arrogance, I was honestly hoping for there to be a reference to the old games by having Kratos chop Heimdall's footsies off
@@gojirabh9383 the fight being based off having to explode the spears at his feet and kratos blowing his arm off with the spear would’ve made that perfect. Instead of just the arm he did the legs too, or at least one.
That reaction from Freyr when he learned about Muses was actually amazing and pretty funny. The genuine "yoooo the what?!?" kinda tone of voice was great.
He was one hundred percent high on the “herbs”

That whole part really endeared me to him. The actor did a great job.
Edit: The actor is Brett Dalton for anyone curious, he was also apparently Mike in Until Dawn
I love the blues clues “A clue a clue!” effect the editors added at 32:16 when you are following the glowing blue paw prints, brings back memories!
I thought I was the only one who noticed!!!
Thank God someone else said it, I was going insane the entire time xD and nothing helped when I was imagining Kratos in the place of Steve
"Kratos what've you got there?"
Kratos holding Gjallarhorn "Mimir."
"You are not my enemy, You are irrelevant"
Damn kratos be dropping the hardest diss
That made me cackle
The AMOUNT of bugs in jacks play through is SO HILARIOUS, but sad, first off Atreus just walking through things and sometimes T-Posing, also When he was shooting the dragon at 1:12:56 it should’ve gone down instantly, not went straight back into flying like 3-4 times Jack hit it, when I fought it, hit it in the face, it went down instantly, the fact he hit it, it did the falling animation, and kept flying was HILARIOUS, but still had me like DAMN he buggy
Yeah it was fairly buggy at times. But I did get the game early so the full patches werent out yet
@@jacksepticeye Your playthroughs are genuinely the best on CZcams, never change Jackie boiiiii
@@jacksepticeyeIt’s really nice seeing you in the comments again despite how sucky CZcams is, keep at it dude :D

@@jacksepticeye the dragon had no place to land so it flying again is intentional game design
The Entire dog chase being Dubbed with Blues Clues was adorable.
Santa Monica out here just casually doing a better ‘the heroes unite and beat ass’ scene than most of recent Disney.
Also, love that Kratos doesn’t stop Birgir. The Spartan knew what it would be like to take the moment away from any Greek tragic hero.
I love how Jack forgot the Draupnir Spear was created specifically to kill Heimdall. By creating multiple spears and detonating them, Kratos overwhelms Heimdall's senses to be able to land hits on him. XD
Sean: "I literally am Fimbulwinter"
Me: ah yes, he makes the dwarven realm smell bad with his presence
Lol
30:46 Oh my god this scene is so good. That final "grunt" of agreement was like Atreus speaking and understanding his fathers language lol
seàn: “girthy”😂😂😂😂😂😂
also seàn: “i hope im never called girthy in real life… only in the right places😏”
I was wondering if anyone else caught that
Only gab is probably allowed to call him that
Birgir is such a king, hardly seen the whole game and only speaks once, yet super badass looking and sacrifice’s himself like a chad.
And then survives anyway, true legend
No, dude.
ULTRACHARLES!
Birgir King 🍔👑

if you realize Heimdal calls kratos a monster while he called thor a sick man which may imply that whatever kratos was in that moment thinking of doing to him was WAYYY worse then what thor was thinking and it caused him genuine fear in his last moments of life
Heimdall's demise is one of the most satisfying boss deaths I've had in a long time. He's such an incredibly hateable guy.
I kinda love his character. There's about these "hate to love" characters where they're clearly an asshole but they're so entertaining and/or charming that you cant help but love them. A lot of it also comes down to the delivery which Scott Porter did a great job with.
I just love how charismatic and fun Freyr is, despite him being injured “Party at Sindris house!!” 😂
"I knew it would do that." The line delivery AND Freya's face really made that a moment.
31:00 just hearing Atreus grunt back at Kratos probably made me way too happy lol
It’s a weird fact that Kratos is also a “half breed”, with a god and a human and Kratos is also related to “giants” being the titans with Cronus being his grandfather
Nah that's a common misconception the titans weren't giants the giants in greek mythology were completely different
@@irnehredna7110they were giants, but they weren’t Jotun
@@ntfoperative9432 NO SHIT SHERLOCK
@@irnehredna7110relax dude, they were just adding on to what you said
Aren't Titans "always big" instead of the Giants "possibility to grow tall"?
Fun fact: the verse that Birgir speaks before killing the dragons is a famous verse from norse poetry called Ljodahått. Directly translated to english: Death comes to beasts, death comes to friends, death will come to you as well. But I know something, that will never die; the reputation of the deceased.
Freyr being high on herbs is the funniest thing I've seen all day
I love that Kratos is starting to give out companionable shoulder-grabs now he's trusting others more
it's so wholesome!!
Maybe kratos can trust them because he knows if they betray him he will destroy them
uh oh
There's a gleefully sadistic part of me that hopes the devs gave Christopher Judge a piece of rebar and told him to do all that to Scott Porter.
52:25 I love how Sean forgot to take the resources from the portal thing after capturing the lindwyrm lol😂
heimdall is the smartest character. "let me just threaten him about his sons life"
He's all-seeing, not all-comprehending. 😂😂
if i was heimdall i’d be doing the same shi low key
he didn't want to be spared out of pity. that worked.

The complete disconnect between kratoss reaction and the audience reaction to heimdalls death is giving me the blades of chaos feels from 2018 again
The audience cheers as kratos internally weeps, and it's horrifying to see from a third person perspective
In my playthrough, I went from excited to finally get back at Heimdall for being a little shit the whole game, to being horrified by what Kratos did to him. It's interesting to see other people's reaction to moments like these, even if there is a disconnect
@@noxtide7043 while true, it just feels...wrong
Like the blades of chaos, the mocap actor had to do it several times because he kept crying during the shooting of it, kratos despises those things with every fiber of his being
Meanwhile
"YO ITS MY FAVORITES BRO KRATOS YOU KNOW YOU LOVE THOSE THINGS CMON, WOOHOO!"
I get it's supposed to be a fan favorite thing that would excite the fans, but the reaction to such an emotionally powerful is still shallow from lots of people
If they understand it afterwards though, I guess it can be forgiven, it is quite the nostalgia shot for a lot of people
Nah, anyone who cheers at Heimdalls death is way too easily manipulated by poor writing.
Would’ve been much more interesting to see him actually change his mind, and even genuinely promise to never hurt atreus.
This ”mean guy gets killed” is so boring it almost hurts...
Such a waste of the only good character in the game.
He was genuinely entertaining, even if he was a jerk.
@@schnek8927 found a hater
@@schnek8927 What you suggest is poor writing. Heimdall was arrogant, and he'd never have "promised to never hurt atreus" that's just ridiculous and completely out of character for him. It's poor writing to change a character's personality completely just so they don't die.
Bonk is the catchfrase of this entire series.
Fun fact, I forgot his name but a soldier jumped out of a plane and his parachute failed and when he hit the ground he simply rolled and walked away pretty much unscathed. I feel like thats where they got the idea for burgers response
Tried to google it and was surprised to find more than a couple instances of this happening. Alan Magee, Nicholas Alkemade, Nikolai Zhugan and Vesna Vulovic to name a few.

Man no one talking about Birgir and his sacrifice, literally one of the coolest scenes of the game

@Dethgears thank
8:25 heimdall using his endless sight as a spider sense to basically use ultra instinct is a really creative way to weaponize the concept of him seeing everything everywhere
Bro is such a cool character
Heimdall: "You think YOU can bring down Asgard?!"
Kratos: "Not think. Know! ... If you make me..."
At 25:22 when Sean mentions Conner, I legit thought he was going to say “Conner, the android sent by cyber life”
I thought I was the only one lol
OMG SAME
Atreus: “what happened here?”
Mimir: “I don’t rightly know”
Half expected Atreus to reply something like “but I thought you knew everything mimir” 😂
In my head I imagined him saying that lol
Nah, c'mon. It was already old after like a 3rd time, way back in the first game
Heimdall reaching for the spear and Kratos gently tapping it to the floor in response was one of the most satisfying scenes thus far holy crap I KNOW that felt good to Kratos. 13:15
I love when characters make fun of Kratos' skin, they have no idea its literally ash from the corpses of his old wife and daughter he killed
Yeah it's twisted and morbid, but I doubt he'd bring it up anytime soon.
One of my fave moments in this episode is when Kratos gives his answer for Brock’s riddle. Kinda shows that he is thinking about way more than just killing the next enemy. I love how these 2 games have developed Kratos and honestly put him right beside Arthur Morgan as my fave video game character of all time. I love this game
I love how as the fight progresses, Heimdall lets his anger cloud his ability of foresight and you can hit him more often as it goes on.
That’s not what happens. Kratos is progressively getting angrier and angrier and his punches get faster as he begins to let out a bit of his actual true rage and power. He hit him so hard and fast that Mimir was knocked off his hip. You can barely even see the attack from how fast it was.
@@truecreation8803 good imagination, but you're wrong.
@@chairjacker nah I’m right lmao. Which makes sense why kratos is able to hit him. As he’s letting out a bit of the ghost of Sparta. Sit down💀
You're both right. Once heimdall got hit, he became more aggressive, focusing on offense instead of defense, and kratos has fought similar opponents. This makes sense even more cause he's arguably comparable to thor, who basically told heimdall "try me bitch".
@@truecreation8803 or... he's able to hit him constantly because Heimdall is angry and it's literally clouding him... he becomes more aggressive and angry at Kratos and that's what does him in, not that kratos can hit faster... he stopped paying attention to what his next move would be.
Listen to jack go ‘look I have adhd ok?’ As he ran towards a shiny rock being guarded by some poison plant and getting hit by it is hilarious
FR I literally laughed at that moment
Ok, the edit adding the Blue's Clues buildup on finding the tracks was just *mwah* i had a good giggle from that
I was searching the comments for something like this, I only took notice after Kratos threw out the boat and I heard the 'you just got a letter' jingle
Heimdall :"You're going to spare me, out of pitty!?"
Kratos: "No. I beat you. I have no reason to kill you."
He indeed beat him.
Heimdall lowering himself to the level where he doesnt accept that he lost, and instead raging at Kratos for not killing him shows that he has been truely beaten.
